Dont think "good" and "cheap" go together, you get what you pay for with MOST things.

exactly...you get what you pay for...fi you are trying to protect your car, the least you can do is drop some green for a nice cover

yeah, i'm familiar with the concept. what I was looking for was personal experiences with quality products that don't cost an arm and a leg.

thanks anyway.

Give us a price range....are you looking for a fifty dollar cover from Kragen or Auto Zone or are able to spend $200 or so on a California Car Cover?

Technalon and Noah are good 150 covers. Outside they last about 2 years before they start "shedding".

Watch the underside of the cover.. The good ones are usually lined with a soft material so as not to scratch the paint. I agree with restomod, that was a contradictory statement, good and cheap has never gone together lol.

From my experience, these are the ones that shed after a couple of years, but worth the price to store outdoors. They protect against sun damage very well too-
